the tracking id set up as jaysblog for example you will know that particular click came
from your blog. If you are advertising on backpage for example a top classified site you
can set the tracking i.d to backpagead so you know where your clicks are coming from.
Get it? The tracking i.d’s let you know which affiliate marketing campaigns are
performing well and which one’s to ditch. Conclusion: Use the tracking i.d whenever
possible. I hope I explained it so you understand it.
Find and buy a domain name. A domain name is http://www.Facebook.com for
example or your internet address, or URL. You also want your domain name to include
some good keywords related to whatever you are gonna be selling. For example: If
your gonna be promoting earn money online products which I do not suggest you go
into because the competition is fierce. You may want to buy a domain name with the
keywords earn money online products in it if it is available. Check out
http://www.godaddy.com and see if they have one that you are interested in and buy it
after you do your keyword research. Find a domain name that has a keyword phrase
related to whatever your blog, or website is trying to sell that has a lot of searches with
low competition. This will take some research on your part but you are a smart cookie
you can do it!
Start a self hosted WordPress blog, or a website where you actually pay the small
monthly fee for a company to host your site for you. I recommend Hostgator that is who
I use and I am very happy with them. If you want to build a real affiliate – internet
marketing business website hosting is a must. It is cheap about $5 – $ 10 bucks a
month and you can pretty much do what you want without fear of breaking anybody
else’s rules. These are your rules on your paid site you call your own shots as long as
you are not doing anything illegal you should be fine.
Do not build your new affiliate internet marketing business on quicksand by going the
cheap free hosting route such as Blogger.com. They are free for a reason you do not
own them Google does and they can delete your blog for whatever reason they deem
fit. Trust me I went this route when I was a beginner and did not know any better and I
built my money site on blogger.com. Big mistake my blog was deleted and all my hard
work was flushed down the virtual toilet. Not a good way to start my new affiliate
marketing career at all. Lesson learned I moved on do not make the same mistakes I
made as a beginner pay for your own hosting and build a real internet business that will
last. You have been warned and like the saying goes you can drag a horse to water but
you cannot make him drink. I hope your smart enough to listen to this advice!
Only post 100% unique content on your website, or blog. Do not copy and paste
someone else’s content onto your website, or blog and claim it as your own. First off it
is not cool at all in most cases, and secondly Google will not rank your website highly
in the search engines which will kill your online business in the long run. After the last
Google update Google slammed affiliate sites that had a large amount of duplicate
content that were trying to game the search engines. This was a good thing for me,
and all the other real affiliate – internet marketing blogs out there on the internet who
work hard on our online businesses. To recap: Only post the content if you write it
yourself on your blog, or website or you will be paying the piper eventually.
